Medical beauty mask has many magical effects, such as whitening, anti-wrinkle and improving skin.
Interpretation of the truth:
We can always hear merchants promoting various magical effects of medical beauty mask, such as whitening, anti-wrinkle and improving skin. Is that really the case?
First of all, we should know that the broad concept of mask has two contents, one is the name of the machine and the other is the name of the makeup. The so-called "mechanical mask" is actually a kind of "medical dressing", which belongs to the category of medical devices. The word "mask" can't appear in the name, let alone the words "whitening" and "anti-wrinkle".
"Cosmetic mask" refers to cosmetics that are applied to the surface of human skin and removed, scrubbed or kept after a period of time to play a nursing or cleaning role. Cosmetic mask products cannot be declared as "medical skin care products" or "cosmeceutical products", and they cannot express or imply that the products have medical functions, otherwise it is illegal propaganda.
Therefore, "medical beauty" and "facial mask" cannot appear at the same time, either called "XX medical dressing" or "whitening/anti-wrinkle mask". Consumers can first identify whether the business is formal by the product name when purchasing.
The "medical beauty mask" that is being stir-fried now is the "medical beauty dressing" mentioned above. As a medical instrument, medical dressing is produced aseptically, and only a small amount of effective components are added. As far as the ingredients of medical dressings are concerned, there are no effective ingredients for whitening, anti-wrinkle and improving skin in regular medical dressings. The magical effect of whitening and anti-wrinkle promoted by merchants completely exaggerates the role of medical dressings, misleads consumers and seeks greater benefits under the banner of medical beauty.
